Hello @john_rohme

 

Welcome to the HP Support forum. Thank you for posting.

 

Can you start the computer eventually , can you load it to Windows desktop ?

 

The overheating is typically a symptom of a hardware problem.

Please, check this article from HP and follow the steps > http://support.hp.com/rs-en/document/c01657439

 

The Blue screen (BSOD) is kind of Windows self-protection feature. If you received a blue screen error, or stop code, the computer has shut down abruptly to protect itself from data loss. A hardware device, its driver, or related software might have caused this error.What you describe could happen because of incompatible with Windows driver (most often) or because of hardware issue (rarely).
